Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Page 357

Listening to Bangu's mutterings to himself.

Chalanzi was completely stunned, as if she had been petrified.

That guy isn't even a hero, how come he's so strong?!

…………

this day.

When Ron and Fubuki arrived at Bang Dojo.

Saitama took Genos to the examination hall to participate in the hero certification exam.

Genos later became an S-class hero, while Saitama, the bald demon king, became a C-class hero, ranking lower.

…………

at dusk.

A noodle shop in Z city.

"hungry."

When Saitama and Genos passed by, they saw this udon noodle shop. Saitama pointed to the shop and said to Genos, "Genos, do you want to go eat udon noodles together?"

"Master, I'm fine with anything."

"Okay, let's go."

So the two of them went inside the noodle shop.

Not a moment.

Ron and Fubuki, who had just come down from the dojo, also arrived at this street.

"What are you looking at?"

Ron glanced at Fubuki, who was staring at her phone, and asked.

Fubuki was intently looking through her phone. The screen displayed the Hero Association's website: "The Hero Recognition Test ended today. I'm seeing if there are any talents worth recruiting into Fubuki's team."

Upon hearing this news, Ron's heart stirred slightly.

Hero recognition test, so does that mean that bald demon king is also...

"What?! A rookie who just passed the hero recognition test has been directly rated as an S-class hero?!"

Fubuki opened her eyes wide.

"Just who is this cyborg?!"

Ron thought to himself, "Just as I thought."

The sky has completely darkened.

Ron and Fubuki also passed by that udon noodle shop.

Ron glanced at the glowing sign of the udon noodle shop and said to Fubuki beside him, "Want to go eat?"

Fubuki, who was looking at her phone, glanced up at the simple noodle shop and refused without hesitation.

"Then I'll go."

As Ron spoke, he put his hands in his coat pockets and walked toward the noodle shop.

Fubuki paused for a moment, put her hands on her hips, and looked at Ron's back with some annoyance and dissatisfaction, saying, "I really don't understand what's so good about a place like that."

As she spoke, she turned to leave, but just a second before she looked away, she saw a shiny bald head and... a blond cyborg through the window.

"That is……"

Fubuki's eyes narrowed, and she immediately looked at her phone, comparing it with the photo of the newly promoted S-class hero 'Devil Cyborg' in her hand.

It's exactly the same!

"I never expected to run into a newly promoted S-class hero here. This is a good opportunity to say hello!"

Wearing a green dress and a white fur coat, Fubuki's eyes flashed with surprise. She immediately put on her high heels and followed Ron toward the noodle shop.

"Two guests, welcome."

The shop assistant greeted Ron and Fubuki with a smile as they entered the noodle shop, saying, "This way, please."

Ron turned to look at her and asked, "Weren't you not coming?"

Fubuki's cheeks flushed slightly.

"Stop being so long-winded."

11. Challenges in the Noodle Shop

The udon noodle shop was quite crowded.

"Two guests, what would you like to order?"

"Two bowls of udon noodles."

"Understood, please wait a moment."

Fubuki, who was sitting across from Ron at the table, picked up the water on the table and glanced at the others and Genos.

"As expected, that is the newly promoted S-class hero, the cyborg."

Fubuki looked at the bald man opposite her, a hint of doubt in her eyes: "And who is that guy sitting there? He looks so silly, is he a hero too?"

At this moment, Saitama, having finished drinking the ice water, was idly chewing on the ice cubes inside.

It does look quite silly, completely different from other people's style.

Ron took a sip of water and said, "Don't underestimate him, he's very strong."

"Very strong? That bald guy is very strong?"

Ron hummed in agreement.

Fubuki looked on incredulously.

Genos noticed Fubuki's gaze, turned his head, and frowned slightly. "That woman looks like Hellish Fubuki, the number one B-rank fighter. What's she doing here?"

"Jenos, what's wrong?"

Saitama asked.

Genos looked away: "No, it's nothing."

Fubuki glanced at the two of them again, then asked Ron across from her in a low voice, "Hey, do you think I can get him into the Fubuki Group?"

"That's impossible. Why would an S-class hero become a B-class hero's subordinate?"

Ron rested his chin on his hand and said casually.

Fubuki paused, then said, "But you said before..."

"There's a method to everything. If you think you can convince him with just words, then go ahead and give it a try."

Fubuki was silent for a moment, then picked up her water glass and took a sip.

"Um, sorry, the two of us want to take on this challenge."

This statement immediately attracted the attention of all the customers and staff.

All eyes were on the bald man in the yellow Superman suit and white cape.

Ron followed Saitama's gaze and looked at a sign on the wall.

[Challenge: Extra Spicy, Extra Large Bucket Udon Noodles - Bounty: 50000 yen; Failure: 10000 yen]

"Guests, are you really going to take on that challenge? Let me make this clear first: my extra spicy udon noodles are not for everyone."

The store manager crossed his arms and spoke to Saitama and the other person.

"It's okay, it's okay."

"Is that so... then I'll go prepare it right away."

"It looks interesting, so please prepare one for me too."

A man's voice came from the side.

The customers, including Saitama Genos, and the manager all looked at Ron, who had spoken up.

The two high school girls saw Ron and immediately looked on with infatuation: "He's handsome!"

"Okay, so handsome!"

The manager approached Ron's table and asked, "Both of you, are you also going to take on the challenge?"

Fubuki quickly denied it: "No, I'm not."

Ron said, "It's just me."

The store manager nodded: "I understand."

He turned around and shouted to the kitchen, "Three extra-spicy, extra-large buckets of udon noodles!"

"learn!"
